Sourced from clay-limestone and sandy soils, this wine achieves a masterful balance between power and finesse.

Why choose this wine:

Domaine Le Vieux Donjon Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2019 is a rare and sought-after wine, perfect for collectors and lovers of great Rhône Valley crus. Its depth and complexity make it an ideal pairing for grilled red meats, game, and refined sauced dishes. While enjoyable after proper decanting, it will fully reveal its grandeur after several years in the cellar, unfolding more elegance and nuance over time. A must-have wine, destined for history.

I was able to taste the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape multiple times, and it’s the finest vintage I’ve ever tasted from this estate, surpassing even the 2016. Lovers of classic, impeccably made Châteauneuf du Pape should back up the truck on this beauty. A wine of incredible richness and depth, as well as elegance, it has a gorgeous nose of peppery herbs, blackberries, garrigue, cured meats, and sandalwood. Full-bodied and concentrated, it builds incrementally on the palate and is perfectly balanced, with sensational purity, ripe tannins, and a great, great finish. There’s nothing over the top or out of place, and traditionally made Châteauneuf du Pape doesn’t get much better. It needs 2-4 years of bottle age and will shine for well over two decades. Bravo!
